Does anyone know anything about skateboarding? My character is a nineteen-year-old skateboarder with no survival instincts. I'm looking for skateboarding terms and the names of dare devil stunts as well as phrases that such a character might say. Please let me know if it's okay to use any longish phrases that you give me. I'm assuming that short phrases are okay for me to use.

I was going to suggest that you visit a skateboard park to pick up the lingo. But then I remembered that the last time I was there, no one spoke at all. It was totally silent except for the rolling sounds, the occasional scraping of a board on a rail, the chattering of an out-of-control skateboard.

Thank you to everyone. I got what I wanted, plus an appreciation for skateboarding. I'm using a ninja-kick ollie, a frontside disaster, a double kick-flip (the kick so nice you flip it twice.) and a handstand.
